[d20 Apocalypse] After the Blast IC

[Frozen Messiah]

Terrence is now starting to feel the effects of none active duty as he runs through the crowd towards the mall. As he runs he hears a man scream and his military instincts kick in again and he turns towards the sound. Once he gets up to him "What the hell is going on? are you ok?" Terrence askes him through gasps of air and then he notices the mans camera ",Not going to work all devices seem to be dead, like my cell."

Sophie Lin, 5/9 hp

Frustrated, Sophie steps back from the Prius and kicks the door. She stumbles to the ground immediately after, not quite realizing how dazed she is from the blast. She walks back to the group where Kyle is applying first aid.

She says to Xavier, "Sorry, the car I looked at is fried. Can get the radio working without any more parts?"

And then to Kyle, "I need a band-aid for scratch I think..." Obviously an understatement what with the gash and the many burns she has. While he tends to her, Sophie looks around for any cars that might still have salvageable engines (the battery in particular). Something with lights still on would be a plus.

I'll just assume that's a failure.[/sblock]Not noticing anything, she tells Xavier "The warehouse should be better for batteries than these wrecks. Are we all going together then?"

Francisco nods to the girl "I could make some twists to these parts and get ourselves moving, but I'm not sure how much is it going to last, half an hour, perhaps two full hours, there's no telling. The best would be to find a regular acid battery."

Kyle manages to treat Aziz's cuts and scrapes, but removing the large shard of glass from his leg is going to require surgery. Otherwise, there is risk of arterial damage. Aziz is floating in an out of consciousness already from the loss of blood.

*****

Xavier can't seem to find any batteries in the back room of the grocery store that would be of the size needed to power a semi-truck.

OOC: A Knowledge (physical sciences) or Knowledge (technology) check might tell you where there is a nearby auto parts shop.

"I'm OK, well I guess" Tom says in a more stable tone. He gazes up at the massive cloud swallowing up the sky. Tom returns focus back to this guy, "Who are you? Are you OK? What do we need to do now?" He spits out these questions in a flurry. Tom is still thinking about food, shelter, and what the future is holding.

Sgt. James Matthews; 5/32

After scouring the cargo bay area for anything usable, James nods at Kyle, "James is fine, or Jay... best James." He finishes tossing the remaining goods into the truck bed and walks over toward the red toyota compact that Kyle indicated. James shouts back to the group: "Anyone want to try to get some more fuel for that thing?"

[sblock=ooc] James will try to pop the trunk and hood; grabbing anything useful from the trunk, and pulling the battery out of the front to use to recharge the semi. If getting into the car/hood/trunk requires a strength check of some kind, he'll just work at it until he gets it open: 1d20 = 3; 1d20 = 14.
Pulling the battery out: Repair (take 10) +1 = 11 [/sblock]

"Porfavor don't brake anything will you?" Shouts Francisco, who is already nervous. "I'll handle the battery if you don't mind..."

[sblock= Take our battery and general knowledge that might be useful.]K. Technology: 28
Repair: 35[/sblock]

Terrence Cross 25/44

"My name is Terrence and i seem to be okay enough that I'm able to help you. We should try and find some more people that have their heads on straight, there is safety in numbers." Terrence tells this man as he leads him of to the side so they are out of the way of the panicing people "I've been in the military for some years so I know how to handle crisis all i ask is that you keep your head up, oh I never got your name."

Kyle's truck is unfortunately on fire by the time you reach it. It is too hot to approach safely, as is most of the intersection. The fires could be burning for hours.

Francisco seems to hit on an idea though. He believes that any batteries that have not been hooked up to significant electrical systems should be fine. Hence, he recommends finding an auto parts store. Unfortunately, not being local, he is not sure where to find one. However, when he mentions an auto parts store, the man who earlier suggested the short wave radio butts in. "I know where there's a Pep Boys just a mile away. I bet we could make it over there, grab us the batteries and get back here in a jiffy."

"Perfect. Lets go pronto" says Francisco ready to move
